Topics covered in this unit include reading an electrical meter, computing the kilowatt hour usage of household appliances, determining the cost of operating household appliances, and selecting the most energy-efficient appliances by reading energy efficiency labels. The unit contains student performance objectives, content information, teaching-learning activities, student handouts, transparency masters, and evaluation instruments. (KC)
